tt200s are like <200 dollars! |
EACH.
I doubt the mixer will fall apart after a year. My neighbor has a dm1050 that he bought for $75 a year and a half ago. The only thing that's wrong with it is the crossfader on one side is crakely.
I still have a djx 700 that's running smooth that I bought 2 years ago. Not one thing wrong with it.
I don't know why everybody puts down low priced mixers. Hell, most of you probably havn't even touched them, or owned them for more than 2 months to get the full effect of wear and tear on them. |

| I have the DXM03 & its going strong, same with the cans... do u people go around throwing around your gear? , im not sure how ur guys stuff breaks so easy, if u take care of it and keep the dust out, they will be fine as far as the mixer and cans go, but those tt200's just plain old suck balls. <-IMO you need to get a very strong motor turntable or just get used techs on ebay if u dont wanna get the whole stanton 150 $$$$$ deal. i personaly love my str8 100's. i got them on ebay for cheap as hell and there damn solid, wicked neo had his for a long ass time and there going strong. i rele dont know why they stopped making that product. |

| teh tt-200s aren't that bad. i own a pair and they hold their pitch well. I've ripped a lot of my vinyl to mp3 using the decks, and the mp3's hold their pitch when i use my cd decks.... |

| I cant emphasize enough waiting till you get more money to buy Technics 1200's if you want to go the turntbale route. I have had my 1200's for 6 years (Mk2') and they work the same from when I bought them. I am also using Ortofon nighclub catridges. Who knows, you might start DJ'ing out in clubs in two years. The turntable of choice of in clubs are Technics. If you aint going to go first class, when are you going to go? |

| Stanton's top decks are okay...but if you get technics on ebay for like $200 each...you know they will last you at least a generation with no flaws. :D |

the only technics tt's on ebay for even close to 200 bucks are the m3d's are they good. one auction for a pair ends in 1 hour... 2 for 400 bucks..

| the equipment is great for starting. the tt-500s will last u quite some time. The mixer is good, i only heard good reviews for it. nice buy. About the vinyl, the only two i heard of is chemical brothers and daft punk. yeh, im a nOOb :D . if u have an extra $180 to spend, then i recommend the technics RP-DH1200 headphones. i have them and they kick ass. better than the seins i had. nice comfy fit with GREAT sound. everything u would expect from technics. |

well, everyone does when they are all into their rocking tunes. u do some crazy stuff. i actually made the fader top pop off of the metal crap that goes into the mixer. hey, what can i say...it was worth it =). |

if you have $180 to spend on headphones, get the Senn HD-25s. |
